Event Comics was an American independent comic book publisher founded by veteran artists Jimmy Palmiotti and Joe Quesada. The company published during the years 1994 to 1999, at which point it was contracted to form the Marvel Knights imprint for Marvel Comics. == History== Penciller Quesada and inker Palmiotti, after working well together on various projects such as Valiant Comics' ''X-O Manowar'', and following the creation of their first joint project in Kid Death & Fluffy for a Creators Universe card series, decided to create their own studio with their own original characters. They spent two weeks in the Florida Keys developing Ash, their flagship character. Event published several series starring Ash, as well as stand-alone crossovers with another Event title, ''22 Brides''. The initial series, simply titled ''Ash'', ran for a total of seven issues, with issue #6 leading directly into issue #0. The second series, ''Ash: The Fire Within'' ran for three issues. The final series to focus on the title character was ''Ash: Cinder & Smoke'', which ran for a total of six issues. Ash also co-starred in the intercompany crossover ''Azrael/Ash'', co-published with DC Comics in 1997. Another popular Event character was Painkiller Jane, who made her first appearance in ''22 Brides'' #1 (1995). Originally a five-issue mini-series, Painkiller Jane went on to star in numerous crossover books with the likes of The Darkness, Darkchylde, Vampirella, and Hellboy. In 1997, Event launched ''Crimson Plague'', the first creator-owned comic by popular veteran cartoonist George Pérez. Originally intended as a six-issue mini-series about an alien with ultra-toxic blood, Pérez produced only one issue. (He later temporarily revived the title with Image Comics in 2000.) Other Event Comics titles included ''Thrax'' (1996), the ''Kid Death & Fluffy Spring Break Special'' (1996), the ''Kid Death & Fluffy Halloween Special'' (1997), ''Legends of Kid Death & Fluffy'' (1997), and ''Here Come the Big People'' (1997). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Event Comics」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
